AL QUDS – The Hamas Palestinian resistance movement called for mass mobilization against Israeli military forces and settler attacks throughout the occupied territories after the Israeli army killed a Palestinian teenager during a raid in the northern West Bank town of Jenin.

Hamas, in a statement released Monday, mourned the death of 16-year-old Jana Majdi Zakarneh, who was found dead on the roof of her family home after an Israeli sniper targeted her and fatally shot her in the head. Targeting minors is a heinous crime for which Israeli authorities must be held accountable, the Gaza-based movement said.

Palestinian prime minister asks UN to put Israel on ‘list of shame’ after teenager killed by regime forces Palestinian Prime Minister Mohammad Shtayyeh called on the United Nations to place the Israeli regime on its secretary-general’s annual “shame list” for violations against children after Israeli troops fatally shot a teenager during a raid in the northern West Bank city of Jenin.

During a meeting with the UN Secretary-General’s Special Representative for Children and Armed Conflict, Virginia Gamba, in Ramallah, Shtayyeh denounced the killing of 16-year-old Jana Majdi Zakarneh as another crime added to the long list of horrific crimes committed by Israeli forces against Palestinian children. Gamba on Monday began a special visit to the occupied Palestinian territories, including the West Bank and Gaza Strip, during which he will meet with families of Palestinian children murdered at the hands of Israeli forces to learn about the grave violations perpetrated by Israeli soldiers against Palestinian children.
